Sword Qi Soars, Treasure Land Appears!

In the eyes of Gui Mei, the primary goal of his eldest brother meeting Chen Jianjun was simply to gain entry to that treasure trove.

There was absolutely no need to have someone like Chen Xin come over as well.

Xu Xiao did not speak, but Dugu Bo took up the conversation: "Second Brother, you are thinking too simply."

"If I haven't guessed wrong, Big Brother initially intended for Chen Jianjun to provide us with protection."

"But things didn't go exactly as planned, so Big Brother settled for the next best thing and had his son come instead."

"With Chen Xin here with us, it is effectively the same as having Chen Jianjun here."

"We can consider ourselves to have a backer now, and we haven't lost anything; we are still perfectly free."

Yue Guan listened to Dugu Bo's words, looking stunned: "No, Dugu Bo, since when did your brain get so good?"

"Did that person feed you something when you went to see Chen Jianjun that made your head work better?"

Dugu Bo curled his lip and rolled his eyes at Yue Guan, too lazy to even acknowledge the guy.

Xu Xiao nodded from the side: "It is more or less exactly what Dugu said."

"With our current standing, being able to meet Chen Jianjun is already a stroke of luck."

"To have achieved this much, your Big Brother is already very satisfied."

The three nodded in agreement; it was indeed true. If they were stronger and had more leverage, perhaps the other party would have invested in them.

But as it stood, Xu Xiao was more than content with this outcome.

He had initially worried that the other party might refuse.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly.

Xu Xiao looked at his three brothers: "Let's go, it is time to head to that place."

The four stood up, their gazes fixed on the treasure trove that had once made them shrink back in fear.

This time, they finally had the ability to enter. Although they were borrowing power, being able to borrow it was a skill in itself, was it not?

Xu Xiao was suspected of calculating against Chen Jianjun, but it could not be denied that he had indeed been of help to Chen Jianjun, so Chen Jianjun turned a blind eye to Xu Xiao's actions.

In the end, it was just a matter of mutual benefit.

With the small swords given by Chen Jianjun, the four of them did not walk openly through the Sunset Forest; they remained cautious, avoiding trouble whenever possible.

After all, there were only four small swords, and each one used was one less; Xu Xiao and the others had to use them sparingly.

Outside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, the four arrived once again.

Xu Xiao took out the small sword given by Chen Jianjun, and the four walked around the perimeter to find a spot where they could unleash the sword's power without damaging the immortal herbs.

Following the method Chen Jianjun had described, Xu Xiao began to channel his power into the small sword.

"You lot, be careful and stay back."

Xu Xiao shouted.

As he injected his soul power, the small sword hummed, and a terrifying sword aura shot into the sky, the Seven Kill Sword intent erupting forth.

The lethal sword technique poured down!

Xu Xiao watched with wide eyes as the poisonous mist was cleaved open by a single strike, and the small hill beside the mist was leveled, the sword intent continuously eroding the surrounding toxins.

The poisonous mist crackled; the surrounding vapors tried to surge back in, but the sword intent remained, dissipating anything it touched.

Seeing this, Xu Xiao commanded: "Take out your small swords and shield me as we move!"

With the sword intent lingering here, Xu Xiao would be injured if he walked through, but with the small swords provided by Chen Jianjun, it was a different story.

The three shielded Xu Xiao as they entered the treasure trove they had been longing for!

The passage that had been opened had not yet vanished; it would only return to its original state once Chen Jianjun's sword intent dissipated. The leveled hilltop lay outside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

It had no impact on the interior of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well at all.

They had specifically chosen this location, leaning against the mountain, to ensure they wouldn't affect the inside.

The four looked at everything before them and took a deep breath; the intertwined aura of ice and fire washed over them in waves.

"Finally, we are finally in!"

Xu Xiao was overjoyed. He had been in this world for several years, and finally, he saw the hope of rising to power.

Yue Guan's gaze was fixed intently on the strange and exotic flowers and plants; he loved them, he loved them so much.

"Big... Big Brother, it's the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, it's actually the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum!"

Yue Guan had seen it; he saw the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum beside the red and blue water.

Seeing him trot over, Xu Xiao immediately called out: "Third Brother, don't touch that lake water, it will kill you!"

However, Xu Xiao's worry was misplaced. Yue Guan slowly crouched down in front of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, carefully and gently stroking the immortal herb.

Xu Xiao and the others breathed a sigh of relief; the man was just fond of flowers and plants.

"Big Brother, are these the immortal herbs you mentioned before?" Gui Mei looked around. The most spectacular sight here was the red and blue lake, followed by these strange and exotic immortal herbs all around.

Xu Xiao nodded gently: "These are indeed the immortal herbs, but these herbs are not so easy to consume."

"We are not Third Brother; he has already found the immortal herb most suitable for him."

Hearing Xu Xiao's words, Dugu Bo felt a twinge of envy toward the other man. How could this chrysanthemum have such good luck?

The two of them also realized that this immortal herb was their destined opportunity.

Xu Xiao watched Yue Guan's obsessed expression and chose not to interfere; there was nothing wrong with a little boy liking flowers and plants, as long as he didn't go out and cause trouble.

The three of them strolled around the area, leaving Yue Guan alone to admire his flowers and plants.

Xu Xiao and the others stopped to the side, and Xu Xiao looked at Gui Mei and Dugu Bo: "Second Brother, you can now obtain your first soul ring."

Upon hearing this, Gui Mei was overjoyed, his eyes fixed intently on Xu Xiao.

Seeing this, Dugu Bo immediately blocked Gui Mei: "Second Brother, Big Brother isn't a soul ring; you don't intend to absorb him, do you?"

"Hahahaha!"

Xu Xiao and Gui Mei burst into laughter. Gui Mei laughed and patted Dugu Bo on the shoulder: "Fourth Brother, that is where you are wrong."

"My soul ring really can only depend on Big Brother. Not just me, but your soul ring and Third Brother's soul ring will all have to depend on Big Brother in the future."

"And Big Brother's soul ring will have to depend on us!"

Gui Mei's words left Dugu Bo feeling confused. Isn't it all just mutual help? Why did it sound so different coming from your mouth?

Xu Xiao saw at a glance that Dugu Bo didn't understand: "Fourth Brother, you will understand in a moment."

Dugu Bo said: "In a moment? Big Brother, if we were going to hunt for soul rings in a moment, there would have been no need for us to come in here just now."

Gui Mei loved seeing Dugu Bo's ignorant expression.

"You, oh you, you'll know in a moment."

As he spoke, Xu Xiao summoned his martial soul, and a white light suddenly erupted.

Now that the 90 days had passed, it was time to give Dugu Bo a shock.

"Big Brother, if you're going to get a soul ring for Second Brother, then just get it; why are you bringing out your martial soul?"

"There are no soul beasts here."

Dugu Bo looked at the two grinning men before him, completely bewildered.

"Hahahaha, Dugu Bo, I just love that ignorant look on your face. Remember to keep your eyes wide open and watch carefully in a moment."

Yue Guan, who was crouching there tending to his Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, looked back and shouted.
